The Apache Accumulo project is happy to announce its 1.6.2 release.

Version 1.6.2 is the most recent bug-fix release in its 1.6.x release line.
This version includes numerous bug fixes as well as a performance
improvement over previous versions. Existing users of 1.6.x are encouraged
to upgrade to this version. Users new to Accumulo are encouraged to start
with this version as well.

The Apache Accumulo sorted, distributed key/value store is a robust,
scalable, high performance data storage system that features cell-based
access control and customizable server-side processing.  It is based on
Google's BigTable design and is built on top of Apache Hadoop, Apache
Zookeeper, and Apache Thrift.

The release is available at http://accumulo.apache.org/downloads/ and
release notes at http://accumulo.apache.org/release_notes/1.6.2.html.


Thanks.
